Hello all,<br><br>I am trying to use type 30a to model collector array
shading on my PV panel rows. I ran some test simulations and there seems
to be a mismatch between type 30a and weather data file in the total
radiation that reaches the surface. <br>
<br>I set the following parameters to type 30 and to type 99 (weather data):<br><br>- slope of surface = 45<br>- azimuth angle of surface = 0<br><br>also in type 30:<br><br>-slope of field = 0<br><br>Then I set the row separation in type 30 to value 100 m. (there should be no shading between PV arrays)<br>
<br>When I log the total radiation on surface from type 30 and type 99
there is a mismatch. The radiation level of type 30 is always a little
lower than in the type 99. Does anyone know how this is possible? have I
possibly made wrong connections?<br>
<br>Best regards. Santeri Siren
